1. An instruction generating apparatus comprising: a receiving section that receives job information including a plurality of jobs determined in a given order by performing a first arrangement operation, in which information indicating a plurality of job items corresponding to the plurality of jobs is moved and arranged in a given order, and a second arrangement operation, in which information indicating a processing device is arranged in association with information indicating a job item including processing of a document, from among the information indicating the plurality of job items arranged in the given order, wherein each of the jobs includes a process of the document by the processing device; a determining section that receives a selection operation selecting the processing device, when the second arrangement operation is performed, detects a processing device which is capable of performing the job item including the processing of the document and which is selected in the selection operation, and determines the detected processing device as a processing device for processing the document; and a generating section that generates instruction information based on the job information received by the receiving section, the instruction information including, in the given order, a plurality of sets of (i) a document corresponding to each job and (ii) detailed process of the document so as to instruct the processing device determined by the determining section to perform each document process, wherein the job information includes condition information of each job, wherein the determining section determines detailed processes to be performed by the processing device based on the condition information of each job and the processing device which is associated with the job item in the second arrangement operation.

2. The instruction generating apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the determining section determines the detailed process of the document corresponding to one job of the plurality of the jobs based on the condition information of another job performed before or after the one job.

3

3. The instruction generating apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the receiving section includes a display input section that arranges and displays job items corresponding to the plurality of jobs in the given order on a display screen, the display input section inputting the job item including the processing of the document by the processing device among the job items.

4. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for generating instruction information, the process comprising: receiving job information including a plurality of jobs determined in a given order, by performing a first arrangement operation, in which information indicating a plurality of job items corresponding to the plurality of jobs is moved and arranged in a given order, and a second arrangement operation, in which information indicating a processing device is arranged in association with information indicating a job item including processing of a document, from among the information indicating the plurality of job items arranged in the given order, wherein each of the jobs includes a process of the document by the processing device; receiving a selection operation selecting the processing device when the second arrangement operation is performed, detecting a processing device which is capable of performing the job item including the processing of the document and which is selected in the selection operation; and determining the detected processing device as a processing device for processing the document; and generating instruction information based on the received job information, the instruction information including, in the given order, a plurality of a set of (i) a document corresponding to each job of the plurality of jobs and (ii) detailed process of the document so as to instruct the determined processing device to perform each document process; wherein the job information includes condition information of each job, wherein detailed processes are determined to be performed by the processing device based on the condition information of each job and the processing device which is associated with the job item in the second arrangement operation.

5

5. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 4 , the process comprising: determining the detailed process of the document corresponding to one job of the plurality of the jobs based on the condition information of another job performed before or after the one job.

6

6. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 4 , the process comprising: arranging and displaying job items corresponding to the plurality of jobs in the given order on a display screen; and inputting the job item including the processing of the document by the processing device among the job items.

7

7. A document processing system comprising: a processing device; and an instruction generating apparatus that includes: a receiving section that receives job information including a plurality of jobs determined in a given order, by performing a first arrangement operation, in which information indicating a plurality of job items corresponding to the plurality of jobs is moved and arranged in a given order, and a second arrangement operation, in which information indicating a processing device is arranged in association with information indicating a job item including processing of a document, from among the information indicating the plurality of job items arranged in the given order, wherein each of the jobs includes a process of the document by the processing device; a determining section that receives a selection operation selecting the processing device, when the second arrangement operation is performed, detects a processing device which is capable of performing the job item including the processing of the document and which is selected in the selection operation, and determines the detected processing device as a processing device for processing the document; and a generating section that generates instruction information based on the job information received by the receiving section, the instruction information including, in the given order, a plurality of a set of (i) a document corresponding to each job of the plurality of jobs and (ii) detailed process of the document so as to instruct the processing device determined by the determining section to perform each document process, wherein the processing device performs the document processes in an order of the plurality of jobs based on the instruction information generated by the instruction generating apparatus, wherein the job information includes condition information of each job, wherein the determining section determines detailed processes to be performed by the processing device based on the condition information of each job and the processing device which is associated with the job item in the second arrangement operation.
